@dangun, Interesting description of modern society and thinking. Is it not correct that the FBI, CIA and the tech giants the fund and employ can capture and store all digital data and mostly have done so for a long time. I appreciate very much what you guys are doing but I think my govt file is fat enough already. Not much they don't know. Or am I wrong??

When you know you're being observed, you optimize for what looks good rather than your personal interests. The surveillance apparatus leads to behavioral modification at scale. We're all reading and writing what is considered acceptable controlling our freedom of thought, while performing a version of ourselves within said norms, which might be the most subtle and powerful form of control ever deployed a la NPCs. To be unique is to be human, and privacy affords this to us.

The data is still not centralized. C.I.A. doesn't really believe in UFOs, is caught hovering U.S airspace provided by F.B.I from the X-Files.
